Although I am a veteran of producing travel and food related shows, I had never worked on a Bourdain shoot and when the opportunity landed in my unexpected lap I naturally accepted with enthusiasm. Not only am I a lover of new flavors and discovering a culture from the bottom of a soup bowl in France or from the cozy kitchen of a Korean grandmother’s stove, but I am a fan of the show. To be honest, it’s my husband who is the true fan in our family, but after watching the show over his shoulder, I have become a fan in my own right – and the chance to work with Tony and the crew excited me.
